The Runnin’ Rebels played in their fourth straight NCAA Tournament this past season and their sixth in the last seven years. Only 12 programs nationally have matched that and it is tops in the Mountain West over that span.

Head Coach Dave Rice led UNLV to another 25-win season in 2012-13 and the 51 wins by the program over the last two seasons is the most ever by a UNLV coach after his first two years leading the program (Jerry Tarkanian had 44 wins in his first two years).

The 2012-13 season saw the largest Thomas & Mack Center crowds in 22 years, with an average of 15,729 over 18 regular-season home games being the highest since the 1990-91 season.

UNLV, which won four games over ranked teams last year and ranked in the top-10 nationally in assists, rebounding and blocks, returns two starters and six players overall from last season. Nine new players are on the 2013-14 roster, including three that used their redshirt year while practicing with the team in 2012-13.
